Dead or Alive Xtreme 3 follows on from where the second game left off. This time they had the power of the PlayStation 4 and the PlayStation Vita to mess around with. It is worth noting that the PC and the Nintendo Switch would also get a port. If you liked the other games in the Xtreme series then I do feel that this one is worth playing, even if it does not have as much meat on the bone.
Whose Island?
Dead or Alive Xtreme 2 is the sequel to Dead or Alive: Xtreme Beach Volleyball, and features the female characters of many Team Ninja games. The game revolves around the obtainment of credits. Credits can be earned by playing volleyball, racing on jet skis, and other activities. Dead or Alive Xtreme 3 is a sports game played from a third-person perspective and retains the camera mode from the earlier installments in the Dead or Alive Xtreme series. It features multiple gameplay modes, which includes mini-games such as beach volleyball and 'butt battle'. Game modes include beach flag, in which characters will compete in a race to retrieve a flag, and rock.
The game is once again set on an island paradise, but this time players can create their own island. There is very little story here, each girl does have her own “motivations” however, not as much time or effort was spend on that here as it was in Dead or Alive Xtreme 2. That is not to say that Dead or Alive Xtreme 3 is a bad game or any tying, it just feels a bit more rushed in this regard.
The Beach, The Babes, The Boobs!
It goes without saying that this is an absolutely stunning game. I do not feel that the leap is as big from 2 to 3 as it was 1 to 2. However, this is a game that could not be any easier on the eyes. If you have played any Dead or Alive game before and had a thing for some of the characters, you are in for a real treat here. Especially with the amount of control that the game gives you over the camera. Each girl can wear many different outfits and you can unlock outfits for other girls, but without going on a massive grind which is something I liked. The different locations also look great and being able to make your own island does allow you to put your own spin on things.
More Of The Same
I loved the second game and thought it really did improve on what the first game started. With Dead or Alive Xtreme 3, I do feel that they rested on their laurels here and felt people would play the game just for the boobs. This game does once again have the volleyball aspect that we all know and love. The last game tightened things up and made it more skill-based and it is pretty much the same on offer here.You also have the same mini-games as before such as beach flag and butt battle. They just do not offer enough new here in terms of the actual gameplay to make you get really excited. Do not get me wrong, what is on offer here is great stuff and there is plenty of interaction you can do with the girls. However, I would have liked a whole host of new mini-games as this was made for a new generation of console.
Dead Or Alive Xtreme 3 Venus
I know that this may have sounded like a negative review, but I did actually enjoy my time with Dead or Alive Xtreme 3. It does what it does very, very well. The graphics are certainly an improvement over what the second game offered due to the power of the hardware it was made for. I just wish that they added in some more new content as it fees like the second game, but with better graphics.
Pros:
- The DOA girls look better than ever before here
- I liked the tan and swimsuit malfunctions
- You have to see these boob physics!
